01 · THE DISPATCH

Yael Adar, the mother of Tamir Adar who was killed on October 7 while serving on his kibbutz's security team and whose body was returned in a hostage deal, called for a state commission of inquiry. Speaking to N12, she asked, 'How will we know why if a state commission of inquiry isn't formed?' She added that 'someone doesn't want the truth exposed — the truth we are entitled to.'

The demand comes over 20 months after the October 7 attacks, with no state commission of inquiry established. Adar's comments reflect frustration among bereaved families and the broader public regarding the lack of a formal investigation into the events of that day and the decisions that preceded them.
